Chapter 86

The bald man had his back to Tan Xinman when he spoke, and his back looked frivolous.

In an instant, Tan Xinman instinctively hid behind the crowd without even thinking.

The staff around her were still discussing the details of the filming, and did not notice the two bald men walking out of the road. Only Tong Jing's eyes paused on Tan Xinman, and she quietly drifted towards the two bald men.

Tan Xinman ignored the voices around her, and just raised her ears, trying to listen to the conversation between the two bald men——

"You know I'll act quickly to get the people in the car." From the bald man's voice, you can hear that he is fearless.

Tan Xinman frowned more and more.

The person with him looked ordinary, with a gentle face, as if he would not be noticeable in the crowd, but he was much more cautious than the bald man.

He winked at the bald man, reminding him that there were outsiders in the village.

The bald man snorted with disdain.

"It's okay, that..." The other person lowered his voice and said meaningfully, "You can send her to the island, where you can have fun."

As he said this, he rubbed his thumb and index finger together, and greed flashed on his ordinary face.

The two looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

They glanced at the noisy variety show team and slowly walked away, still whispering something to each other.

Although Tan Xinman couldn't hear clearly, she had an intuition that they were talking about the little girl just now.

Tan Xinman slowly clenched her fist.

Logically speaking, she should first ensure that she is out of trouble, and then inform the police of the situation here, so that the police can take action, and maybe they can follow the clues and strike down an industrial chain from the root, but...

inexplicably, Tan Xinman thought of herself.

She and the little girl are not similar at all. One was sold by her family, and the other was exchanged by her biological mother to a wealthy family. If you insist on finding some similarities, maybe it's just that she couldn't grow up with her biological parents.

However, although there is obviously no similarity, Tan Xinman seems to see her own shadow in the little girl.

It is said that her biological parents originally lived in a remote mountain area. If she had not been exchanged to the Tan family and replaced Tan Li's life, would she also face such a situation?

In the little girl, Tan Xinman seemed to see another self.

I am not valued, I am not cherished, I am disposable, I am worthless.

Tan Xinman bit her lower lip slowly until she felt a dull pain, her eyes slowly turned——

"!"

Tan Xinman was thinking hard, when she suddenly felt a slight pull on her waist, and her heart almost skipped a beat.

Someone's body temperature approached, and she lowered her voice, "What's wrong?"

Tan Xinman turned her head and saw that it was Tong Jing.

"What's wrong?" Tong Jing asked again in a low voice, "Did something happen?"

Tan Xinman looked at her in surprise, she didn't expect that the first person to realize that something was hidden in her heart would be Tong Jing.

Tong Jing said seriously, "The boss told me to take good care of you. I noticed that you looked strange at the beginning. What happened?"

Tan Xinman thought for a moment and looked around.

After making sure that no suspicious people were staring at them, Tan Xinman leaned close to Tong Jing's ear and briefly explained the whole story.

Tong Jing's expression became more serious.

"Leave first?" Tong Jing and Tan Xinman had the same initial idea, to evacuate as soon as possible, and then, as a law-abiding citizen, inform the police of the situation here.

However, Tan Xinman changed her mind after thinking for a while, "We have to take the child away as well."

Tong Jing:!

Her eyes widened, "Are you crazy? You still want to snatch people from human traffickers?"

"Don't get yourself into trouble." Tong Jing's face was full of disapproval.

"...I know." Tan Xinman lowered her eyes, "But what if?"

Tong Jing was puzzled.

Tan Xinman bit her lower lip, "It takes time for us to go out and call the police, and it also takes time for the police to rescue. No one can be sure what the situation will be when these people are rescued."

"...It's just a child." She gestured at her waist, "Such a young child."

"What if the rescue takes a little longer and the child is ruined?"

"Once the damage is done, it may take a lifetime to heal... I just want to save as many people as possible."

Naive.

Tong Jing really wanted to scold Tan Xinman.

In their group, apart from the variety show team, there was only Tan Xinman and Tong Jing. Not to mention bodyguards, they didn't even have their own staff.

Human traffickers sounded vicious and evil.

How could they rescue the child from such a group of people? It

was simply a fantasy.

But on the other hand, Tong Jing had to admit in her heart that after knowing this, she couldn't leave with a clear conscience and leave everything to the police.

They might be able to break the nest of human traffickers in the end, but before that result comes, there will always be people who continue to be persecuted.

You can't use the word "bad luck" to summarize other people's suffering.

"Besides, if we have that girl, it can still be used as evidence?" Tan Xinman knew that she was saying something ridiculous, but her inner impulse forced her to find an excuse.

Tong Jing's arms holding the tablet subconsciously tightened, "...No, we can't do it."

"First of all, you don't know where the child is. Secondly, can you ensure that the other party is unarmed? The time is too short and the situation is unclear. The best way is for us to go out first and then call the police."

"But..." Tan Xinman knew that Tong Jing was right, but she still wanted to struggle.

Tong Jing slowly loosened her grip on the tablet and said seriously, "If we go now, it's like the Calabash Brothers saving Grandpa. The boss told me to take good care of you, and I can't let you do such a stupid thing."

"And there are so many staff members, we can't let them pay for your sense of justice."

"Leaving the matter to professionals is the most correct choice. If you go to save the child now, let alone whether the child can be saved, if you startle the enemy, it will make them more vigilant, and it may make the subsequent actions of the police more difficult."

"And..." Tong Jing said the key point, "The boss will be here soon, and I can't let the boss be in any danger."

Tan Xinman was stunned.

Tong Jing: "Do as much as you can, Miss, don't be impulsive."

Her words convinced Tan Xinman, and at the same time regained her rationality to run away.

Tan Xinman calmed down, ruthlessly dismissed the ignorant little girl in her mind and the young girl who was dragged away, forced herself to stay calm and fresh, and whispered with Tong Jing about how to leave the village.

They both felt that they should not let everyone know the situation in this village.

Although there are not many staff members in the variety show team, it is hard to guarantee that some of them will be like Tan Xinman just now, with a sense of justice, or some will be afraid and behave strangely. What's worse, if there are staff members with media syndrome, they will not only not want to run away, but also want to take pictures of all these things as materials , which is even worse.

Moreover, based on what Tan Xinman just saw, compared to the innocent, this entire village probably has a deep relationship with the human traffickers group. When buying a wife and selling a daughter just now, the villagers mostly had a natural expression. Over the years, I don't know how many girls have been harmed.

In case the villagers and human traffickers find out that they are strange and unite to prevent them from leaving, they have to find a suitable reason and walk out of the village openly.

While Tan Xinman was thinking, Tong Jing was sending a text message to the police and a message to Tan Li. Unfortunately, the signal was not good. After pressing the send button, the message was still spinning and was not sent successfully. After waiting for a long time, the

text message to the police was successfully sent. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Tan Xinman also thought of a reason to leave.

What kind of profound reason is needed? Just say that the whole team will follow her to take a shot of the bus getting off the bus and entering the village, and then learn from her sister Tan Li's way of doing things behind her back and spend money.

That's it.

The red envelopes are enough, and the office workers have no complaints.

Simple and rough.

"Sorry to bother you all, I'll give you red envelopes!" Tan Xinman said as she banged red envelopes into the work group in front of everyone, "Oh, the signal is not good, let's wait while walking, we can always get it."

She imitated Tan Li's demeanor when she was spending money, which made the staff excited.

Isn't it just a shot of getting off the bus? What's the big deal!

Everyone in the variety show team cooperated, and a group of people walked outside.

Halfway through the walk, they saw the two cars of the human traffickers again.

This time, the person guarding was not the bald driver, but a tall and thin man. He was behind the car, and no one knew what he was doing.

Tan Xinman and Tong Jing exchanged glances and planned to walk past as if they didn't see it.

One step, two steps...

Seeing the two vans getting closer and closer, Tan Xinman and Tong Jing's heartbeats became faster and faster. The staff beside them knew nothing about it, and they were all filled with joy at the prospect of grabbing the red envelopes.

Time seemed to be stretched out very long, and the flow of time suddenly returned to normal the moment they crossed the van.

Tan Xinman and Tong Jing breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

The two looked at each other calmly, and took a step forward at the same time -

Tan Xinman's footsteps stopped in mid-air.

In the corner of her eye, she saw the girl who was following the tall and thin man obediently.

The little girl didn't cry or make a fuss, and she followed the tall and thin man quietly with a pair of big eyes. She was small in stature, and if Tan Xinman hadn't turned her head slightly, she would never have noticed such a little girl.

Nizi heard the voices a long time ago. She half turned her head and stared at Tan Xinman and her group without blinking.

Every time someone passed by, she looked carefully.

But she was very obedient and stood there motionless.

Just like that, Tan Xinman unexpectedly made eye contact with Nizi.

They were both stunned.

Nizi blinked and slowly grinned.

She just smiled like that, obedient and soft, standing behind the car.

Nizi's height just reached the rear bumper of the car. The back door of the car was opened by the tall and thin guard. The car was dark, like the open mouth of a giant beast, ready to devour a small life.

Tan Xinman couldn't take that step with peace of mind all of a sudden -

**

"And then?" Tan Li saw Tan Xinman suddenly stop, lowered her eyes and didn't speak, and tilted her head.

Tan Xinman pursed her lips, feeling guilty for being caught doing something she shouldn't have done. She looked straight at Tan Li and said softly, "I saw there was only one person on guard at the time, and there happened to be a thick wooden stick on the side of the road, so I..."

Her voice became softer and softer.

Tan Xinman made up her mind, "I knocked the guard unconscious and took the child away."

Hearing this, Tan Li raised her eyebrows.
